 you are too young to be having sex full stop. whether you're taking precautions or not.
there are always risks of getting pregnant having sexua intercourse, increasing the amount of condoms won't be any more effective, one is enough but the best advice is to wait until your older and legally able to have sex.
take care.

I'm sure the last thing you want to do is become pregnant or catch a disease. I myself was 15 when I lost my virginity - too young I think, and I wish I'd waited, but when peer pressure plays a big role, it's hard not to succumb when you're that age.I wouldn't reccommend using 2 condoms. If you use one properly, you will be fine. If you are concerned, maybe you should buy the extra safe variety, they are thicker. If you do plan on having sex regularly, you should consider going to your doctor and asking for the pill.It's better to be safe than sorry, not every person is going to wait until the exact date they are legally allowed to have sex, and again I do commend you for asking and making sure you know the facts.

If one condom is put on and used correctly then it should be over 99% safe.
Why are you asking, your so young?

 Hi Dear
To be honest, I'm not 100% sure, but as far as I know, one should only use one at the time. The reason why two condoms could be less safe is that they would rub against each other what could actually injure the condoms and you could get pregnant. For safty you should practice to use a condom before actually have sex. One of the most dangerous things is to harm the condom with the finger nails. What you also could do is using a spermicide together with a condom. But caution: ask at the pharmacy or your doctor which spermicide you can use together with a condom, because some of them don't work together. There are some spermicide which can dissolve the condom.

Never use male and female condoms togetehr either.
